THIS IS A PRE-RELEASE TEST PRESSING LP, WHICH MEANS THAT IT WAS ONE OF THE FIRST RECORDS PRESSED FROM THE STAMPERS TO CHECK THE SOUND QUALITY AND SOMETIMES EVEN THE CONTENT OF A RECORD BEFORE IT'S RELEASED. SOMETIMES NO MORE THAN 5 OR 6 TEST PRESSINGS ARE MADE OF A RECORD, WHICH ALSO MEANS THAT IT'S ABOUT THE BEST QUALITY RECORDING THAT YOU COULD POSSIBLY GET FROM THE PRESSING . ALSO IN THE CASE OF THESE PRE-RELEASE TEST PRESSINGS, MANY TIMES THERE ARE DIFFERENCES FROM THE EVENTUAL RELEASE SUCH AS SOUND MIXES, LENGTHS OF SONGS. SOMETIMES SOME SONGS ARE REMOVED AND OTHERS ADDED WHEN THE RECORD FINALLY GETS RELEASED. I DON'T HAVE THE REGULAR STOCK COPY TO COMPARE IT WITH, BUT ONE THINGS FOR SURE, THIS RECORD SOUNDS GREAT.
SIDE A CONTAINS: TANGO ZEBRA - LAUGHING MAN - THE GYPSY ZURNA.
SIDE B CONTAINS: PORTRAIT OF MARGARET - BEACH CREATURES DANCING LIKE CRANES - AT THE SEASIDE CAFE - GUERNICA -"Z".
AN INCREDIBLE QUALITY RECORD THAT THE GUY I GOT IT FROM SAID HAD NEVER BEEN PLAYED. IN ANY CASE I PLAYED IT AND IT PLAYED PERFECT. REALLY GREAT FIDELITY AND QUIET . I ALSO LIKE AN IDIOT MOVED IT AROUND UNDER A PAIR OF 100 WATT LIGHT BULBS AND DIDN'T FIND ANY SURFACE MARKS, NOT EVEN A PAPER SCUFF. NO SPINDLE MARKS ON THE PRINTED LABELS EITHER. THE LABELS HAVE THE MATRIX NUMBERS, ARTIST, RECORD COMPANY AND RECORD NUMBER WRITTEN IN ON THE LABELS. THE RECORD COMES WITH WHAT HAS TO BE THE ORIGINAL GENERIC WHITE CARDBOARD JACKET BECAUSE THE ISLAND RECORD INFORMATION SHEET IS TAPED ON ONE OF THE SIDES. . THAT'S HOW THEY MADE THEM. NO WRITING. NO TEARS. MAYBE SOME ULTRA LIGHT YELLOWING BECAUSE AFTER ALL IT IS 33 YEARS OLD NOW. NO SEAM SPLITS ON THE GENERIC CARDBOARD JACKET . THE RECORD COMES WITH A PLASTIC INSIDE OF PAPER TYPE OF INNER SLEEVE AND A PLASTIC OUTER SLEEVE.
